Whether you accept it or not, the world is constantly changing. Girl Pow-R’s ‘So New’ teaches us that life is never static: “Taking the next step on our journey forward.” Change is necessary for individuals to survive and thrive in a volatile world.
The constant change in life is evident in every aspect of life. But despite that, many people hold on firmly to their old way of life, refusing to embrace the new: “I don’t wanna end this ride. I like when you’re by my side.” It is natural to loathe the unknown since it always requires you to leave your comfort zone. But adaptability and little adjustments can make the new normal less painful in the long run.
Adapting to a new lifestyle or process does not always have to result in fear and anxiety. How well you manage transitioning to the unknown is the key to dealing with the fear of a new beginning.
Spencer Johnson’s “Who Moved My Cheese?” best describes how individuals respond to change. It is a story about four characters living in a maze: two mice named Sniff and Scurry and two little humans called Hem and Haw.
The characters always seek cheese (which represents happiness, achievement), and self-actualization). One day, the cheese they had found a while back and grown fond of disappears, and the characters have to adapt to the unexpected situation and search for new cheese.
Here are some key points from “Who Moved My Cheese?”:
- Change is inevitable. It is a regular part of life, and it is crucial to be prepared for it.
- Embracing the new leads to success. If you quickly adapt and adopt new ways of doing things, you are more likely to find fresh cheese (success and happiness).
- Holding onto the past can be damaging. Holding onto old ways of doing things limits growth.
You can better adapt to a new way of life or process when you realize you have control over your feelings. You can either deny their existence or embrace them as a normal part of life.
Girl Pow-R’s ‘So New’ highlights how accepting the new will transform how you deal with problems: “It’s time to find out what’s next in life. No matter the path, we’ll be alright.” Accept that nothing lasts forever, and it is okay because that makes life exciting. We evolve as people, we grow, and we mature daily.
Seeing change as a good thing is how you become a better version of yourself by constantly developing your life: “We’re looking, we’re looking for something new. We’re waiting; we’re waiting to feel brand new.” It is essential to embrace change and learn to move onto the following stages or chapters in our lives because that is what it means to live: growth!
Remember, life is not static. It moves on daily, and so should you.
